Better Cooking Tips

- Add cheese towards the end of cooking to ensure it melts perfectly without overcooking the eggs.

Directions
Whisk together the eggs, water, and chili crisp in a bowl until everything’s well combined. Heat a good knob of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and let it cook gently, without stirring, until it’s fully set—this usually takes about 6 minutes. Once the eggs are mostly cooked, pile the ham and cheddar on one side of the omelet. Carefully fold the other side over the filling. Let it cook for another few minutes until the cheese melts and everything is warmed through. Then, slide it onto a plate and enjoy!
Serving Combinations
Serve with a side of fresh avocado slices or a simple green salad to balance the spice. A warm slice of crusty bread or toast also pairs well and helps soak up any melted cheese or runny eggs.
Leftover Storage Tips
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in a skillet over low heat to maintain the texture without drying out the eggs. Avoid microwaving to keep the cheese creamy.
